ONE of the suspects in the murder of Drummer Lee Rigby was arrested near the Somali border in Kenya in 2010, the country's anti-terrorism police said today.

Anti-terrorism unit head Boniface Mwaniki told the Associated Press that Michael Adebolajo was believed to have been preparing to train and fight with the al Qaida-linked Somali militant group al-Shabab.

He said Adebolajo was arrested with five others, and later deported.

A Foreign Office spokeswoman confirmed that a British National was arrested in Kenya in 2010.

"FCO provided consular assistance as normal for British nationals," she said.
